    Details of Disappearance

    Iman and her brother Yousef were abducted by their non-custodial mother, Ghada Abdel Fattah Said, from their Euless, Texas home on August 25, 1999. A photograph of Said and her vital statistics are posted below this case summary. A felony warrant was issued for her on November 17, 1999, nearly three months after she abducted Yousef and Iman. She had custody of them at the time she took them, but by leaving with the children she deprived their father of his visitation rights.

    Said, Iman and Yousef may be traveling in a silver 1989 Honda CRS with Texas license plates numbered YCJ05P. They may be in New York, Tennessee, California, or Egypt. Iman was born in Burbank, California. Her whereabouts and her brother's are unknown and their cases remain unsolved.
